Morning lounge denizens. Like if you’re on an 0600 flight today.
Update: the 737 I’m on might be going mechanical. That’s what I get for flying on a Boeing...

You betcha!

You speak the Pittsburgher/Pittsburghese dialect of 'Merican.

Canarsie speaks the Atlanta version of Southern.

That is like saying that Sandy Springs speaks the New York version of Northern.

I was born and raised in New York. We called soft drinks soda instead of pop...

...but I understand that Southerners called virtually every soft drink — even orange soda and other flavors — Coke...

Well I made it. The fixed the issue without much delay. After some fun people watching at ATL and being the only elite on a 50-seater (yay blocked seat next to me), I made it to MLU. It has a DL display, and is a neat little airport. Hard to believe that it all started here.

That is only true downstate. Go up to the Buffalo region and you will find it being called pop.

Mr. Kipper was stationed at Yorktown Naval Weapons Station for his time in the Marine Corps. It was an interesting place.
